Ghanaian businesswoman Rashida Saani who was unfairly implicated in the alleged kidnapping of Emirates Airlines Ghanaian employee, Sylvia Baah, has been vindicated.

A statement from the Ministry of National Security has denied allegations of their officers and by extension, Saani, of orchestrating a kidnapping plot on Sylvia Baah. "The Ministry of National Security has noted with concern a publication by the Herald Newspaper alleging the abduction of one Sylvia Baah, manager of Emirates Airlines at the Kotoka International AirPort, by officers of the Ministry of National Security and the National Intelligence Bureau," the statement read.

The statement said the individuals named in a story by Ghanaian newspaper The Herald for allegedly orchestrating the kidnapping plot did not partake in any such enterprise. "The Ministry wishes to categorically state that no officer from the Ministry or the National Intelligence Bureau was involved in the alleged abduction of Sylvia Baah.

Meanwhile the Ministry has initiated investigations into the circumstances surrounding the alleged abduction," it continued.
